Cheap lathes any good?
Hi
Im thinking of trying my hand at wood turning, I was thinking of buying a cheap lathe first just to see if I like the hobby. These go for about £100 on ebay... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...category=63 3 Are these OK(ish) to start with? the only problem I can see is the bed seems a little on the feeble side, but that's no problem for me as im a welder. I was just wondering if the spindle, bearings, motor etc are reasonable. Many thanks BoB |
